Moin moin: IntercityHotel opening in Lübeck
The new hotel has a young, urban look
Frankfurt am Main/Lübeck, 4 December 2023 - IntercityHotel is “on the move”. And so is the new IntercityHotel in Lübeck. The lobby? The new place to eat, work and chill. The rooms? 176 private spaces to recover from the busy day in the city, be it for business or pleasure. The staff? Well-connected CityScouts to make sure the hotel is part of the urban neighborhood, who have all insider tips on hand.
Denis Hüttig, Senior Vice President Operations Deutsche Hospitality, says: "Ready for check-in: We have reached the next milestone in our growth trajectory for our core market Germany. The new IntercityHotel is opening as a cool, relaxed lodging option in the heart of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck. My thanks go out to our partners Commerz Real and GBI Group – both of which we have been working with successfully for several years at different locations."
For Dominic Rudi, Chief Development Officer of the project developer GBI Group, the property at Konrad-Adenauer-Straße 1 is not only special because of the historical surroundings of the world heritage city. "The hotel is also an impressive example of special, high-quality architecture that fits perfectly into the surrounding area," says Rudi: "As the general contractor, GBI has demonstrated its expertise in the hospitality sector in these stormy times and has delivered a high-quality property to the operator IntercityHotel and the investor Commerz Real."
The location is perfect for all city explorers, easy to go to and easy to travel around. Located right next to the main station, it is just a smooth walk to the old town of Lübeck. And the FreeCityTicket is a plus for every H Rewards member to explore even more of the city, flexible and smart.
Flexibility is key for IntercityHotel. This is why the five daylight meeting rooms are combinable and offer the technology that is needed for all kinds of meetings and events.
Burkhard Kohlhoff, General Manager IntercityHotel Lübeck, adds: "It’s fantastic to see the IntercityHotel Lübeck come to life – we want to thank the city of Lübeck and our local partners for such a warm welcome. Here’s to a long and positive collaboration!"
The IntercityHotel Lübeck is operated by lessee Deutsche Hospitality. The property is owned by the “Commerz Real Institutional European Hotel Fund” of Commerz Real, a subsidiary of the Commerzbank Group. Project development and construction were carried out by the GBI Group.
